Donald Trump: Mean-Spirited GOP Won't Win Elections

Whether intended or not, comments and policies of Mitt Romney and other Republican candidates during this election were seen by Hispanics and Asians as hostile to them, Trump says.

"Republicans didn't have anything going for them with respect to Latinos and with respect to Asians," the billionaire developer says.

"The Democrats didn't have a policy for dealing with illegal immigrants, but what they did have going for them is they weren't mean-spirited about it," Trump says. "They didn't know what the policy was, but what they were is they were kind."

Romney's solution of "self deportation" for illegal aliens made no sense and suggested that Republicans do not care about Hispanics in general, Trump says. "He had a crazy policy of self deportation which was maniacal," Trump says. "It sounded as bad as it was, and he lost all of the Latino vote," Trump notes. "He lost the Asian vote. He lost everybody who is inspired to come into this country."

The GOP has to develop a comprehensive policy "to take care of this incredible problem that we have with respect to immigration, with respect to people wanting to be wonderful productive citizens of this country," Trump says."...

Loved it.

I love the father at the end “I believe Donald Trump loves America”

That’s what I don’t get from Cruz or his people. As a middle of the road average Joe, I know the Cruz types will NOT want me around after the election. I don’t carry a bible around with me, I don’t know what 2 or 3 Corintheans are, I don’t send money to televangelists, I don’t care if gays marry (sorry America is f*cked up and you repubs want to worry about this as a top issue?), so I know I am NOT the America that a southern bible thumper will give a hoot about (and probably a majority of you here I reckon).

I don’t get that from Trump. I think he loves America, and Americans plain and simple. No fine print. No *but only if you are a card carrying evangelical*. His broad appeal is to ALL Americans who just want to see America brought back to its former glory. An America we can be proud of again.

I would not be proud to see President Cruz on TV every Sunday giving a sermon from the white house, or lecturing me whenever he could on what his definition of a good person is.

I don’t need another (Obama) lecturer-in-chief telling me HIS definition of American Values, and how wrong mine are, we need a listener-in-chief, and the only reason these other candidates are even PRETENDING to listen to the American people, is because of Trump.

(If I had the slightest inkling on how, I would stick up that picture of all the parrots looking at Trump at the debate).

Watch for ads from the other candidates now on how they are going to crack down on illegals who kill Americans... predictable.

Obama won, in large part, because he enjoyed nearly 100% of the black vote. Hillary is not going to get anywhere near that simply because she is not Barack Obama. With Trump pulling even more black votes away from her, she’s going to be hard pressed to make up those votes.

It is true.

Why, after all these years, hasn’t the GOPe counter punched with this line? Trump is just doing the job the GOPe will not do.

I don’t want a Sunday school teacher, I want a Patton. These career politicians all live in their gated communities insulated from the hell they have created for us. The crime, schools are a mess, healthcare costs skyrocketing because of all the leaching off the system. These illegals don’t give a rip about being Americans. They send our money home to family and when they have enough, they go back. They spend more time catering to the illegals than they do the black communities that need jobs. It’s time to bring the fist down on all this and not take Teddycruz bears and soccers balls to the border to reward illegal activity.

The EEO was the greatest threat and harm to black men

The EEO allowed, even promoted white women to take the jobs once held by black men and moved them downward on the ladder

If American women had not entered the workforce enmass, there would not be the labor problems that exist.

What a low grade of understanding by this writer. The ad is near perfect in it’s simple message but complex draw factor to so many different groups. It is the best political ad so far this election cycle and I suspect Cruz fans are pulling their hair out as they watch the Cruz pac ads destroy their candidates credibility...

Unlike Ted Cruz, who now uses Trump talking points for his ‘immigration policy’, Donald Trump was consistent from the beginning of his campaign about illegal immigration.

Trump June 16 , 2015

When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically. The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. (APPLAUSE)

Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people. But I speak to border guards and they tell us what we’re getting. And it only makes common sense. It only makes common sense. They’re sending us not the right people. It’s coming from more than Mexico. It’s coming from all over South and Latin America, and it’s coming probably — probably — from the Middle East. But we don’t know. Because we have no protection and we have no competence, we don’t know what’s happening. And it’s got to stop and it’s got to stop fast. (APPLAUSE)

I will immediately terminate President Obama’s illegal executive order on immigration, immediately. (APPLAUSE) I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I’ll build them very inexpensively, I will build a great, great wall on our southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall. He’s weak on immigration......

When do we beat Mexico at the border? They’re laughing at us, at our stupidity. And now they are beating us economically. They are not our friend, believe me. But they’re killing us economically.

Cruz Mar. 23, 2015

Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders.
And imagine a legal immigration system that welcomes and celebrates those who come to achieve the American dream.

(Cruz’s speech was all about him and your imagination!)

I have known Jamiel Shaw for years, he’s a good man, good family. He was first introduced to us by the wonderful Terry Anderson. http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2558808/posts

Until Donal Trump came along, not ONE presidential candidate ever acknowledged the sacrifice of thousands of US families for the loss of their loved ones at the hands of illegal aliens. No, not even the saintly Ted Cruz.
